Get an idea of what food to expect on a Holland America cruise at their late-night snack buffet at the Lido Market. The hours are from 10:30 PM to 11:30 PM, and now even includes some Dutch snack food items as well versus our past Holland America cruises. These were from our New Years 2022 cruise aboard the HAL Nieuw Statendam.

Hello again David and Joann!
That looked very good! Nothing better after a fun night out then broodje (breadroll) kroket with mustard. ๐ it amazes me how they have dutch stuff ๐
Looks like a great stop after a late show. Canโt wait to experience on HAL Rotterdam in a few months.
Chili on a late night buffet? Oh, the bedtime comedic potential!
Well I have seen a lot of late buffets before but this is the best one so far it looked better than some of the lunch and dinner buffets iv seen in the past all looked really good some of the late night buffets are a bit embarrassing nice on thank u again for a great and interesting video cheers๐คฉ๐คฉ๐๐๐๏ธ๐ท๐ท
The food looks delicious! Thank you for sharing. Haven't considered Holland America for a cruise because I thought we were too young. But, I'm thinking maybe we're old enough! I'm still wrapping my head around a buffet closing periodically during the day/night. I'm used to cruise buffets being open continuously from very early morning to late a night.
Yummy the best late night buffet I have ever seen thanks for sharing
That mashed potato look wierd ๐
But would be ๐ mixed with cream cheese.. or what it was.. lol
That buffet looks awesome for a late night snack. Especially the Dutch croquettes and oliebollen
Been there done that late buffet everything you want
Planning what to bring back to the stateroom LOL! Always pack zipseal bags! ๐
Holland America line has the best food and their service on board is excellent too. Thanks for sharing- the food looked amazing!๐
Those apple fritters looked amazing.
The late night "snack" buffet on all Holland America Ships is nice, the food is tasty and a nice way to get a small snack. The fare is limited, but not really meant to be a filling meal. When the Lido market is serving during regular hours the food choices are amazing and unlimited ! I have not stepped foot in the main dining room in the last 15 cruises as the Lido market and other specialty restaurants on board are much better. I ALWAYS look forward to the fantastic salad bar on board and have 2-3 a day along with a main course selection. Love Holland America and will continue sailing on HAL ships.
Some nice stuff ๐น๐น
I agree. That was a very inviting array of food. I would be there every night for the Dutch croquettes & other Dutch/Indonesian specialties.
Did they have Chinese food? Was hoping those were Spring rolls, but they were a Dutch roll of some kind. It looks very nice for a late supper buffet! Thank for another great video!
Thatโs awesome because many cruises have stopped the โmidnightโ buffets way before Covid. Been on 13 cruises and only our first one in 1996 had one. Did they have it every night?
Wolfing down deepfried food late at night. The way to go ๐
That sure looks like a lot of food for just a late night snack.
The late night food look great here compared to Carnival's cheap garbage food.
But where are the kebabs? Surely 90% of all food consumed after the bars close around 2 or 3 am are kebabs.
But then, this does say that the buffet is only available betwixt 10:30 and 11:30pm. Isn't that the time that most people only start to head out to party?
At least for now HA late buffet is open compared to Carnival's massive cuts through out the ships.
Always a pleasure! Thx ! ๐๐๐๐
Trump Gets BLOWN
Wow! Iโm scheduled to cruise in January on Nieuw Statendam. I hope they still have this. It looks really good!
My husband and I were on Holland America a few months ago. The mushroom strudel was AMAZING!
Looks incredible. At least 3 or 4 dinner options there too.
Why arenโt you all fat?
Late night is always difficult. This is indeed exceptional. I usually sail Celebrity, and it's pretty much impossible to get something decent to eat after 9:30/10:00pm unless you're a pizza lover or use room service.
Looks like a cheap all you can eat buffet. I wouldn't go near it, with the potential for cross contamination.
I have to admit Cunard trans Atlantic late nite buffet is extreme….I never saw the outside of the ship cause I couldn't stop eating. . Lol
Very Nice…
Yummy.
Looks great!!
The food on your video was a lot better than we saw on the Konigsdam in December 2022. In general, there was only ONE station open late at night and most of the food looked like it was leftovers from dinner. The three desserts offered at the late meal were the same three offered at dinner. When they ran out of those, there were no more desserts put out.
Late night food both at the buffet and at the New York Deli was a disappointment. When they ran out of things, you were pretty much out of luck.
Sailed on zuiderdam Jan. 2022 and they did not have this vast of a selection for late night dining. I notice those cookie trays look pretty empty, theyโre so good and they go quick!
Are you retired? How do you afford to cruise every week? How do you get that time off?
Is there a late night buffet on every sailing?
I do not se any fish or seafood…
I like your videos. Now I have a question. We are booked on HAL to Alaska in September. I have heard conflicting stories about changes in the morning and I hope you can clarify. Is it true that a passenger can choose three items off the menu rather than 5 items like its been in the past. For instance if I wanted an appetizer and a salad, I had to pay for the salad.
I'm hoping that is not true.
Thanks again for the most informative videos on cruise food.
It's such a great help as plant based vegans. I saw plenty to eat. We just booked our first HAL cruise, a 10 day Mexican Riviera and Sea of Cortez cruise based on your wonderful videos.
I enjoy seeing the food you can have on these ships but I only like the videos that show the buffets – I don't like watching someone else eating and I fast forward thru those.
